Arthur South is HANDS DOWN the best attorney in Lawton. He always kept me informed of what was going on in my case. He gave me some of the best advice I have ever heard in my life and made me feel good about myself. I will never use another attorney so long as he is around as I know he handles many things other than domestic law. I highly recommend calling him for all your legal matters.

I will say that just like business franchise's who try to do too many things at once instead of doing one thing really well best sums up my client attorney relationship. Never felt after money was paid he had my best interest at hand . I was just a task with little to no importance in his bigger scheme of things. If I did not reach out for guidance or communication it never happened or never would have happened. I feel he has lost touch with the pain and suffering common people not of his social class deal with on a daily basis. I was also out of the loop on decisions that ultimately affected me and my future livelihood. Would not recommend.

Hiring Art was our first experience with hiring a lawyer, so we were not exactly sure what to expect. After all was said and done, we feel like our experience with Art was a very poor one. After paying our retainer fee My wife and I felt that we were nothing more than a paycheck. There was little to no communication at all in regard to our case and when there was communication, it was initiated by us. Several mistakes were made on numerous occasions that could have been very easily avoidable costing us an unnecessary amount of time and money. The process of how business was conducted regrettably caused us to lose a great deal of trust and confidence in him as our attorney. Art is a very friendly and nice guy and in his defense he did get the job done in the end, but my wife and I were incredibly disappointed with our experience with him. We highly recommend that you do NOT use him for your legal needs.

I Hired Art South to handle a protective order. Art did a better job working for a local judge who put his fingers on the scale in this case. The judge is friends with the plaintiff. I felt as though Art was working against me from the moment I met him. He is more cut out for daytime television acting then he is as being an attorney. I could be wrong he might just be so old he forgot wich side he was representing. Either way you have been warned.
